Dana White, UFC CEO, explained how billionaire Mark Zuckerberg ended up on the team Alexa Volkanovski at UFC 298, which took place this morning in Anaheim.

“The wolf himself asked him to go out with him. It doesn’t matter how much money you have or what you have in life. Situations like this are an incredible and unique experience, not everyone gets this opportunity,” White said at a press conference.

Volkanovski also spoke on this matter:

“He was going to come to the tournament anyway. We talked and I told him to come out with me. He said he didn’t want to interfere, but in the end we agreed.”
